The team of magicians led by Miranda cast a levitation spell on the stones thrown by the trebuchet, causing the stones with a range of 500 paces to fly forward a full 100 paces in the air, landing right on the forward position of the orcs, although it did not cause great casualties, but it made the vanguard army of the orcs jump for a while.

The stone bullets only fell a few dozen and stopped, and the orc forward commander, who was frightened by a cold sweat, hurriedly ordered the whole team to retreat a hundred steps back, but still felt that it was not safe enough, so he retreated another two hundred steps, so that the front edge of the orcs was three hundred steps back, so that they had to consume an additional three hundred steps of distance loss and physical strength when they attacked.

"Haha! This dismount was a success. Miranda, the second merit of this campaign is for you. ”

Watching the enemy retreat in disarray, Harvey on the city wall burst into laughter. Applying levitation magic on the trebuchet was Miranda's idea. In the past two years, Miranda has stayed in the Youth League, in addition to using her devil training method to let the soldiers of the Youth League improve their personal combat skills, and has also been studying the application of magic on the battlefield, which is one of the important topics that Allen gave her.

Miranda's spiritual power has reached the realm of a dual-system high-level mage, and if she wants to further become an archmage, or even a dual-system archmage, she can only rely on her own comprehension and breakthrough in actual combat. When the Yuss coup took place, Allen, who learned that the Academy of Magic was implicated and Mr. Fox was framed as a traitor, understood that in the next struggle with the Holy See, magicians could not be left out, including those apprentices who were still being trained in the school, so he changed the old magician's reluctance to let students participate in military operations, and took the initiative to ask magicians to intervene in the war, and to play a central role like infantry, archers, and cavalry. It was in this context that Miranda began to study the use of magic on the battlefield, and the use of magic on trebuchets was only one of the results. The problem now is that there are too few mages in the Youth League, and if two hundred air mages can be deployed, the range bonus of the trebuchet alone can deal a heavy blow to the enemy. But this time, he can only increase his prestige, suppress the orcs in momentum, and put a certain amount of psychological pressure on the orcs.

The orc commander Drakebal led his team to Capra Pass, but as soon as he arrived at the pass, he heard that his army had been disarmed by human trebuchets, and he was furious when he heard the news, and called the forward commander Nurnaha to the front and slapped him twice.

"The face of the orc army has made you lose everything!"

Drakebar yelled angrily.

"Poor command from subordinates, damn it, but I promise to re-polish the invincible aura of our orc legion with human blood tomorrow. ”

Nurnahar was the young leader of a werewolf tribe and the first in the tribe, but he could only bow down in front of the angry second warrior of the orcs who was a head taller than him.

"Okay! I'll give you a chance. Tomorrow you must take the city walls, or you will see you. ”

Drakebar's eyes widened as brass bells, and his eyes were full of murderous intent in his command.

"Yes!"

Nurnahar agreed, and hurried back to the barracks to arrange tomorrow's offensive. Behind him, Drake Bar fell into deep thought, this military operation against Capra Pass, he had made a military order to the Beastmaster before leaving, and he must take Capra Pass by the end of October. Drakebal didn't know why the Beastmaster was so desperate to win the Capra Pass, which was far less strategically located than Valen, but he didn't care about a level guarded by a legion that had just been established for less than two years and had an average age of less than twenty years old, and he was very confident that he could win it in one battle. However, after the setbacks of the past two days, he suddenly had a bad feeling that the boy army on the other side did not seem to be easy, and it might even be more difficult to deal with than all the human opponents he had encountered before. Now that there are only three days until the end of October, I am afraid that if I want to complete the task on time, I am afraid that I will have to think of more ways. Thinking of this, he instructed his soldiers to call another capable general into the tent of the Chinese army.

"You go and gather the wolf cavalry who have carried out the autumn hunt near Capra Pass before, I have something to ask them. ”

"Yes!"

The men said yes and turned to leave.

"Cunning humans, don't think that only you will use stratagems, and so will the orcs. ”

Looking at the back of his men leaving, the corners of Drakebal's mouth twitched, revealing a sly smile.

Interrupted by a trebuchet attack, the orc army did not attack in the afternoon. Before dinner, Stanny approached Harvey and suggested that he lead a team to give the orcs a night attack, but Harvey objected.

"Today is the first day of the arrival of the orcs, vigilance must be high, the suddenness of the night attack is difficult to achieve, this is the first. We now have a fortified city to defend, and we have given up the walls and opted for a battle with the orcs in the field, and we have no heavy cavalry, and we do not have an advantage in troops, which is second. Although the night vision ability of orcs is not as good as that of elves, it is much better than us humans, and we are at a disadvantage in night combat, which is the third. ”

Harvey's war books and tactics over the years were really not in vain, and almost without thinking about finding three reasons to oppose Stanley's night raid plan.

Seeing that Harvey was more thoughtful than himself, Stanny had no choice but to abandon the plan that now seemed very risky. After dinner, he took his soldiers up to the city wall to inspect the city, and everywhere he passed, all the soldiers of the Youth Regiment in charge of the night vigil were on standby, and arranged a qi magician on each side of the city gate, and they would release a lighting magic into the wilderness outside the city every half hour, so that the enemy who might launch a sneak attack on the city wall had nothing to hide. Stanny made his rounds until midnight, when he was replaced by Harvey, who had arrived with his own soldiers, and rushed back to the barracks to sleep.

As soon as he woke up, Stanny washed up and was about to have breakfast, when suddenly a long, high-pitched horn sounded from outside the city.

"The orcs acted. ”

Stanny didn't bother to finish his breakfast, picked up a piece of meatloaf in his hand, and rushed out. When he arrived at the city wall, Harvey was already there, and looking at Harvey's bloodshot eyes, Stanny understood that Harvey had been holding out until now.

"I'm here, you go back and rest for a while. ”

Stanny patted Harvey on the shoulder.

"It's okay, the orcs are about to attack. ”

Harvey said, pointing to the wildness of dawn.

Following Harvey's finger, under the light of the rising sun, Stanny saw that the orc army was gathering into different formations depending on the class of troops.

"Come on, let's see what the orcs are really capable of. ”
